Title: Riding the Kraken (II) Rating: PG Length: 120 words Competitor: Nealan of Queenscove Round/Fight: 1/C Summary: The first move.
The first time is in the aftermath of a skirmish. They turn to each other with the simple euphoria of knowing they are both alive. “Riding the kraken,” men call it: drunk with war, momentarily convinced of their invincibility, too shocked to yet grieve their losses.
This time New Hope has not lost a single soldier, the gates close on the last patrol, and Kel breathes a sigh of relief. “Now what?” she asks, removing her helmet. Neal is suddenly beside her, leading her down from the wall.
“We made it,” he says, nudging her as they step inside the guard tower. “Let's celebrate.”
She turns to him, grinning, and leans in to press her lips to his.
